In academic writing, all your opinions must be supported - you should produce your evidence and explain why this evidence supports your point of view. It is important to distinguish between (see Toulmin, 1958):
  • your claim (proposition, thesis, point, position) - your point of view, what you believe;
  • your reason(s) (explanations)- why you believe what you do;
  • your evidence (support or grounds) - the facts, data and examples that support your point of view; and
  • your argument (warrant) - how the evidence you have provided leads to the claim your are making.
